Re: if you believe that, I got a bridge to sell ya

Do any of you realize what it would take to offer more than 3-5mbps for cellular carriers?
95% of cell sites run off a single or multiple T1's that cost 1000's a month in many locations. To offer 100mbps would entail multiples of billions of dollars that frankly could never be recouped as noone would pay the 500 (450 for inet, 50 for 1000 minutes) a month for access that would be needed to even consider breaking even.
